1. Since when is it legal to bump chests with the punt returner? The rules say that a returner has to be given a three-yard cushion to cartch the ball. So, why wasn't it called?
2. I DO NOT like Sean Smith. However, he made some important plays today. He defensed several passes, made some critical tackles-still, he had his hands on the ball AT LEAST a half a dozen times- there were only four legitimate interception opportunities, and he dropped them all. Sheesh.
3. Henne consistently holds the ball entirely too long. I think this is his biggest problem.
4. Doesn't anybody police the sidelines? What that guy on the Jets' sideline did was inconcionable. He should be out of a job tomorrow.
5. Brandon Fields was the MVP today-field position was the name of the game.
6.Rashad Jones was Fields right-hand man. He made great plays on at least three punts to prevent any returns at all.
7.Cameron Wake for All-Pro!

If sean smith can continue to bat down passes even though he doesnt catch them i will take it any day.

Agree with # 3.

Fields, our D, and special teams won this game

If our front office can't tell Sparano, Henning and henne are not the answer after this, we won't see another championship any time in the near future

Pats obliterate the team that abused us. Better preparation

Did you see the coverage today? We had no one open. This is really the worst case matchup for us. With Revis on Bess, he is totally taken out of the game. Bess does not have the size or speed to be effective lined up at split end or flanker. And it is just magnified if he's matched up with an elite corner like Revis. Bess in the slot, matched up with LBs and Saefties, that's good. Outside against corners? Not so good. And Marshall at less than 100% was easily handled by Cromartie. And did you notice his complete lack of effort to get open on that last 3rd down rollout we called? With Marshall and Bess effectively eliminated from the offense, we don't have another legitimate WR on the team.

The offensive line pass protection was awful. On the first Henne fumble, Lydon Murtha gave the defender a free shot at Henne without even touching him. There was a ton of pressure allowed from that side all game, including my Mastrud at TE, as well. And there was a lot of pressure up the middle, with poor blitz pickups from the running backs.

Ww both played sloppy

I was impressed with sean smith today. Seemed like he was everywhere.

It's really simple guys. It was the battle of two SUCK QB's and Sanchez sucked worse.

Give massive credit to our D.

Fatty Patty Ryan is going to cry.

sanches has like 11 ints in his last 5 games i think. Can it get any better?

NOPE.

Actually Sanchez seems like a nice kid. But he's NOT the QB saviour the NFL media has hyped him to be. That pressure is a lot all by itself.

I wish him all the best as a flight stweard

There was no excuse for Henne. There was open receivers and when the backs were coming out of the backfield he was no where close to them.

Go back and watch the game again, with unbiased eyes. You will not see anyone open. And we kept the backs in to block almost the entire game.

Win is a win,but it's not a confident win.

I agree, they are supposed to call interference if he isn't left a perimeter of about three yards. The only exception is supposed to be if some one on the punting team was blocked-into the punt returner.

Noldan Carroll was a goat last week for dropping that INT, but lost in the shuffle is that this kid is a pretty good player. Good KR and has been solid in the secondary.

You must have been at the game b/c you couldn't have seen that on TV.

Reshad Jones is going to really good too. Though lacking a little depth at LB, our D is going to be STRONG for years.

Time to spend some picks and money on the other side of the ball!

Vontae Davis is phenomenal and even with Sean Smith dropping INTs, he is much better than Jason Allen.

I'm still wondering how Allen got so many starts to begin the season.

dolphan4545 you got it right 100% Great post !
